It's hard to imagine that the same servers hosting PlanetLab experiments are also hosting anonymous proxies, but it appears to be true so now it's hard to say whether it was the PlanetLab network or just the list of proxies that attacked the server last week.

The only clue that it was really the PlanetLab network in that original attack was the entry "pli1-pa-3.hpl.hp.com." as HP has a special hardware deal for PlanetLab members.

Discounted HardwareWe are pleased to announce that HP is now providing a special discount price on PlanetLab machines. PIs will be able to see configuration and pricing information when they log in.

Mostly what has been learned from this proxy list is that institutions of higher education appear to be giving the internet bottom feeders the ability to steal.

Here's the reverse DNS on most of the proxy list that I processed as it's interesting to see who's hosting these things:
